Cultural Tip
In Brazil, many families and even single people plan their meals weekly to save time and money. The word 'refeição' covers all three main meals (café da manhã, almoço, jantar) and sometimes snacks. When asking about a plan, Brazilians often expect a casual answer – a list of dishes or a general idea, not a detailed recipe schedule.
